Source? Man, I'm pissed. I've been enjoying the hell out of Almost Human-and even my mother likes it, despite it being scifi. Also, Intelligence has potential and despite its flaws, I think Revolution is a ton of fun. So, source?

My take from following the ratings closely and taking commentary on TV By the Numbers into account.

Oh, I forgot to say that the shows I listed earlier are the one-hour shows on the broadcast networks. In terms of half-hour shows, there's also The Neighbors on ABC, which is likely headed for cancellation.

So nothing confirmed.

Sleepy Hollow is confirmed as renewed. Aside from that, it's an "as things stand now" list based on the observable cancellation thresholds of the various networks in various timeslots.

I thought that was evident by labeling them as being "on the bubble." In other words, no decision has been reached. Although it might make more sense if the shows that have been actually removed were separated from the ones that will probably be back.

"On the bubble" here means that a show's chances of renewal are about 50/50. So you have a division into shows that are likely to return, shows that are a toss-up to return and shows that are likely to be cancelled. I'll edit in some changes to my earlier post for greater clarity.

Hmm, the premise of "Zero Hour" could make for an effectively creepy series: Children playing a game with "imaginary friends" who turn out to be aliens using the children as a means of invading the Earth. Although The Visitors is a lame title and too reminiscent of V. Unfortunately we just had a TV series called Zero Hour (although a short-lived and reportedly dreadful one), so I guess they had to change the title. But I hope they come up with a better alternative before it airs.

The 60-minute pilot - written by Jamie Mathieson (Being Human, FAQ About Time Travel) - enters production this month, and will be directed by Ben Caron (My Mad Fat Diary).

ALT stars Gethin Anthony (Game of Thrones) as 24-year-old Danny, who finds himself transported to a parallel universe with his ex-best friend Milo, played by Craig Roberts (Submarine).

The full synopsis for the new drama reads: "Imagine: that mate you dumped months ago because he's a tool, rings you out of the blue and asks for help. You go round and he's tripping. Banging on about parallel worlds and killers with swords and you're not really listening to be honest.

"And the next thing you know the world's changed. Literally changed. Your girlfriend, who was kind of the love of your life, no longer even recognises you. Dead relatives are suddenly alive again. And someone who looks just like you is living your life. Badly."

I wonder if it's the show's publicist or just the news site that can't be bothered to proofread their blurbs.

The 100 reminds me children of the corn meets lord of the flies.
I am happy with all the renewed shows. I am hoping dracula will be picked up.

Kara Killmer has been cast as a series regular in the NBC pilot Tin Man, a futuristic thriller drama from feature writer Ehren Kruger. Set in the near future, it centers on robot Adam Sentry (Patrick Heusinger), accused of the first-degree murder of his creator, Charles Vale, and the female public defender forced to fight for his cause. Killmer, repped by APA and Kelly Tiffan Management, will play Athena True, Vale’s synthetic robotic companion, a gorgeous and provocative seductress modeled to exactly resemble Vale’s late wife. She claims to be an eyewitness of Adam murdering Vale, but the truth may be a lot more complicated.

Wait a minute... A robot named Adam is on trial for the murder of his creator whose name is Charles? That's Eando Binder's "I, Robot." Or, rather, the Outer Limits adaptation thereof, since there was no trial in the original story. Both versions of the Outer Limits adaptation, in the original and revival series, focused on the defense attorney as the main character.

It sounds like this is an adaptation of "I, Robot," but I can't find any articles stating that this is based on the work of Binder or Outer Limits screenwriter Robert C. Dennis, who added the trial element and the attorney character. Hopefully that's just an oversight on the part of the press.
